    The Cally 40 Year Old 1974 (Special Release 2015)

    A single grain whisky in the Special Releases! The first since 2011's Port Dundas and only the second ever as far as we can remember. Caledonian grain distillery in Edinburgh closed in 1988 and is rarely seen - this 40 year old is comfortably the oldest official release and has been nicknamed 'The Cally', as the distillery was by those who worked there.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Coconut, candy lipstick then into concentrated Werther's Originals and richer, spicier treacle.

    Palate

    Bitter caramel now, warming wood spices, dates and cinnamon.

    Finish

    Creamy vanilla takes centre stage for a moment.

    Overall

    An excellent old grain from an all but forgotten distillery.
